Countdown to Penn State's Access Account password change -- Tip No. 15

Will ITS send me a reminder that my password is about to expire?
Yes. When your Access Account password is within eight weeks of its expiration date, the Penn State WebAccess screen, will present a brief message stating that your password will expire and you will be prevented from authenticating (logging on) through WebAccess. You will be provided with a link to a Web form where you can make the password change. After you have successfully changed your password, access to authentication through WebAccess will be restored. Penn State WebAccess allows users to authenticate once with their respective Access Account User ID and password to a central server in order to access multiple services, without needing to re-authenticate multiple times. For more information on WebAccess, see https://webaccess.psu.edu/help.html online. If you are still using an old password within four weeks prior to its expiration date, weekly e-mail reminders will be sent to notify you of the impending expiration, along with instructions on how to change your password. Please note, it is very important that you change your password now (if you haven't yet changed it this fall) to avoid disruption of your access to University systems and services.
